Function Factor XIII is a transglutaminase that circulates in the plasma as a heterotetramer of two catalytic A subunits and two carrier B subunits. When thrombin has converted fibrinogen to fibrin, the latter forms a proteinaceous network in which every E unit is crosslinked to only one D unit. Factor XIII is activated by thrombin into factor XIIIa its activation into Factor XIIIa requires calcium in biology calcium as a Cofactor biochemistry cofactor . A cleavage by thrombin between residue Arg37 and Gly38 on the N terminus of the A subunit, leads to the release of the activation peptide MW 4000 da . In the presence of calcium the carrier subunits dissociate from the catalytic subunits, leading to a 3D change in conformation of factor XIII and hence the exposure of catalytic cysteine residue. Upon activation by thrombin, factor XIIIa acts on fibrin to form glutamyl lysyl amide cross links between fibrin molecules to form an insoluble clot .

Orphan date December 2007 Automatically added by User SoxBot. If this is an error, please contact User Soxred93 Albert Dastre November 7, 1844 October 22, 1917 was a French physiologist born in Paris . He studied and worked under Claude Bernard 1813 1878 and Paul Bert 1830 1886 in Paris , and in 1886 attained the chair of General Physiology at the Sorbonne . In 1904 Dastre became a member of the Acad mie des sciences . One of his better known assistants was Romanian physiologist Nicolae Paulescu 1869 1931 , who was the discoverer of insulin . Albert Dastre specialized in the field of physiological chemistry , and is remembered for his studies of glycosuria and diabetes , as well as his discovery involving the proteolytic properties of blood. In 1893, he noticed a reduction of fibrin during a Venipuncture phlebotomy in dogs, which he attributed to a destruction of fibrin. He called this phenomenon fibrinolysis to describe the dissolution of fibrin and the breakup of blood clots. Dastre also observed fibrin dissolve when mixed with an antiseptic salt solution, and postulated that it was a form of digestion. Among his written works was a philosophic and scientific treatise on life and death titled La Vie et la Mort , and in 1878 79 he published and edited Le ons sur les Ph nom nes de la vie communs aux animaux et aux v g taux , a work composed by his former mentor, Claude Bernard. With his colleague Jean Pierre Morat 1846 1920 , the Dastre Morat Law is derived, which states that constriction of the body s surface blood vessel s is usually accompanied by Vasodilation dilation of vessels of the viscera, and vice versa .
